Domaine François Lamarche
La Grande Rue, Grand Cru, 2011
justerini & brooks tasting note
Focused, intense red cherry fruit mixed with a biting cherry stone freshness; electrifyingly vivid and alive, the texture is gorgeously suave, the fruit is ripe, bright and enticing. This offers flavours of red cherry, wild strawberry, flowers and cherry blossom and manages to be crisp and yet so silky. Stunning. La Grande Rue is an exceptional vineyard that sits next to La Tâche and was granted the honour of Grand Cru status in 1992.
